The correct answer to this open question is the following.

What caused West Africans to transition from controlling the exchange of goods to European slave raiders was the fact that European powers such as Great Britain, Spain, or Portugal directly competed to acquire the control of the slave trade of African people.

Everything started with John Hawkins, considered to be the first European slave trader in 1562. Years later the government of Englan granted charters to merchants and traders to open locations in West Africa where they could exploit the raw materials and natural resources such as ivory and gold. Because of this, England started to get more competition from other European nations such as Switzerland, the Dutch, and Denmark.

How can you use this Document E to argue that Alexander was great? *

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Alexander was “great” because he easily conquered a lot of land and established prominent societies, like Alexandria.

Alexander wasn’t “great” because he was egotistical in naming a city after him and conquering land just for greed.

Alexander was “great” because he was smart enough to cross the river and use Porus’ own elephants against him.

Alexander was not “great” because he tricked a ruler and killed many men in war only because he was greedy and wanted more land.

Alexander was most likely very religious, and it seems that in Ancient Greek anyone seeking refuge in a temple should be shown mercy. Also, if Alexander had killed everyone in the city than there would have been no point in conquering the city except for land.
